I think it will mean some of the Mid Wales stages used the last couple of years will be dropped - wouldn't be surprised if Myherin was rested after the problems with tree disease and access to the Pike's Peak section being restricted due to the state of the road.

What would be nice, and different, would be to extend Great Orme into the town centre of Llandudno and go straight to the finish ramp from the end of the stage.
